We previously looked at the Reptiles set in the Wild Creatures series, so I decided to pick up the Sea Life set.

Once again, we get eight creatures, each in blue and green plastic. The plastic is stiff but has a rubbery feel to it. The bodies are fully molded, not hollowed out.

Representing the world of the deep ocean, we have humpback whales (roughly 70mm in length), dolphins (60mm), and hammerhead sharks (70mm). You could put these on flight stands and use them in underwater games (such as Thunderball from MSD Games) or as flying sci-fi 'air whales' in 6mm. Or slice them up and use them as ocean hazards, emerging from the waves.

Venturing along the coast, we also have crabs (40mm long), shrimp or prawns (50mm), and octopi (60mm). Giant crabs are useful in fantasy or sci-fi. Shrimp not so much… until you mount a laser on their backs! Octopi are highly intelligent, probably evil, and no doubt psychic.

Finally coming ashore, we get sea turtles (40mm long) and seals (50mm). Sea turtles are usually considered benign, but in 15mm these could carry a sea elf commander or fishmen artillery. The seals would be suitable in any 'northern' clime or army.
